The Village is an innovative digital platform (globalhealthvillage.org) that uses artificial intelligence to match individuals for mentorship, training, funding, and collaboration. Matching can occur among all members of the platform or within tailored sub-Villages (e.g., to support mentorship within a specific organization). The platform also offers unique “Spaces” in which individuals can publish their work in the language and format of their choice (e.g., peer-reviewed manuscripts, blogs, podcasts, videos, and art), thus promoting a decolonized approach to scientific expression. Spaces also offer the opportunity to participate in other activities, such as webinars and live functions (e.g., peer or other professional networking sessions). By breaking down barriers to career growth and research opportunities, The Village aims to enable homegrown solutions developed from local research and supported by the global community. Join us to learn more about The Village and provide feedback on the content, format, and utilization of the platform. Those interested in providing mentorship and/or using The Village to promote mentorship and training within their organization are highly encouraged to attend this interactive session.
